Claire McCaskill Likens Campaigning for Her to Going to the Dentist

EXCERPT:

MCCASKILL: “I like to compare knocking on doors to going to the dentist. Right? You don't look forward to it. You're a little uneasy about it because you never know, you know, what's going to happen. You know they may come up with saying, 'Oh you've got to have a root canal, or an implant, or a filling, but then you get there and you go, 'Well, this isn't so bad.' But he's pretty nice and you know I'm not in pain or anything and then when you walk to the car afterwards, you go, 'Boy, I feel good. My teeth are clean. I've taken care of myself.' You have a spring in your step. I got my dentist appointment done. That's how you feel about knocking doors.”
